Whether the collapse is "out there" or "in here," it often seems the world is collapsing. Many of us seek therapy because the sense of losing our mind, ourselves, our loved ones, or our livelihood is terrifying, and the real threats of psychic catastrophes are debilitating. Knowing what we want becomes increasingly difficult, and we struggle to take shape and hold on to ourselves in the presence of others. We fold up or fold in to protect ourselves and our relationships, but then aloneness, desperation, panic, and self-attack set in.

Life is dynamic, full of highs and lows. And while we often feel excited to share our highs publicly, we may suffer through the lows in silence. I hope to support you in addressing issues connected to stress, relationships, depression, trauma and other lived experiences. My approach is warm, authentic, and collaborative. Through observations and questions, I'll guide you to build insight, gain skills, and come to your own conclusions and decisions. I practice from a trauma-informed and strengths-based lens, specializing in trauma, mood disorders, gender identity, sexual orientation, and racial/ethnic identity.

You are looking to better understand how your intersecting identities (racial, gender, sexuality, etc) & oppressive systems (racism, patriarchy, capitalism, etc) impact your daily lived experiences. You want to, in a safe space, heal and address traumas that stayed with you. You are interested in learning what narratives are limiting your growth, and in replacing them with liberating, nurturing beliefs about yourself. I work closely with members from the BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and other oppressed communities. I have extensive experience supporting folks working through cultural, generational, and other differences/gaps with loved ones.
